What do you guys think of Ram Dass (Richard Alpert)? I've watched a lot of his videos and read be here now. Anyone have any good book suggestions of his besides be here now?

He is.
Tried to find the right words to describe how i feel about the dude. I LOVE YOU RAM DASS....
Everyone here in shroomery IMHO should spent some hours at least reading/listening to what he has to say.
Some of his lectures are just masterpieces i go through when feeling sad,bad,mad or otherwise in need of rebooting my system.

he's a fool who tries to justify his destructive addiction to mushrooms and acid by claiming to be enlightened
because of his mushroom and lsd addiction, he lost his sanity and his prestigious job at harvard.

He didn't drop out of college to use drugs. He already had his PHD before even trying a psychedelic. He was a professor when he was fired from Harvard for using psychedelics.

he didn't drop out of college, he was a professor lmfao.
I love how people treat enlightenment like an achievement, it just makes me lol. enlightenment is simply the realization that there is no ego and that the ego is merely an illusion. it has absolutely nothing to do with effort, hard work, personal achievement haha. those things are merely more illusory games created by the ego.

Enlightenment. Right. Stop jerking your self off. Baba Rum Raisin and Leary did far more harm than good by opening their big fucking mouths with their bullshit and drawing attention. Talk about egos. Those two jerkoffs had enough for ten people

Do you think that is the first time in my 58 year old life that includes 40+ years of psych use I have heard that dingbat? Both of those assholes can fuck off as far as I'm concerned.

I have no use for that navel gazing made up tripe. Never have. And normally I wouldn't give a fuck what stupidity they spout but the fact of the matter is that by these two dingbats broadcasting their bullshit they tipped off the hoi polloi about something that pretty much flew under the radar and got it classified as a schedule 1. Way to go assholes. Idiots should have kept their fucking pieholes shut instead of spouting their deranged nonsense under the imprimatur of an Ivy professorship. They caused more damage than anybody else. You want to spread the word personally? That is fine. You go on TV and you have just fucked us all. Shut. The. Fuck. Up. Idiots.

Wow, it appears that the youngsters have no respect for a genius!! I have followed Ram Dass for years. He is a cultural icon for us dinosaurs!! Hell, it is because of him, T. Mckenna and a couple of other pioneers that I have taken up cultivation. As it was in the 60-70's young people do not trust us. Scoring my favored substances is getting harder every year as my trusted friends die off. Leningrad, here is one of my favorites. [url=http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ4h1XMiuts]http:///url]

Ram dass teaches truth but the knuckle dragging cave dwellers of course can't understand. He may or may not be enlightened, or simply repeating what the masters say.
A funny story, his dad called him "rum dum"

I explained my opinion of Baba Rum Raisin and Leary quite clearly earlier. I try not to repeat myself. I have also made numerous posts about my disdain for the enlightment and spirituality nonsense. I'm not gonna redo it every time somebody posts a video of one of those jerkoffs.

I know we disagree and I hope your point of view makes you a happy person. I can't believe in that stuff any more than I can believe in flying reindeer and god. That is my make up. I just can't do it.
But I will stand by my point that they should have just shut the fuck up and not alerted John Law and the electorate. Really, man, if you want freedom to do shit like that do it sotto voce. I sure as shit aint going on TV and saying how great mushrooms are. I'm just eating them.
